Salt air, spray, sun, and motion, the ocean doesn’t forgive weak materials. Marine fittings face some of the harshest conditions in engineering, yet the best ones seem to last forever. What’s their secret?It’s not luck. It’s precision, chemistry, and experience working together below the surface. The...
Fasteners don’t get much attention until they fail. Then they become the problem you can’t ignore. Whether on boats, gear, or equipment, the integrity of your fastening system quietly determines how reliable everything else is.If you’re constantly tightening, replacing, or dealing with corrosion, it might...
At first glance, the LOXX® dowel might seem like a lightweight solution. It’s small. It’s plastic. And it clips in with barely a sound. But underestimate it, and you'll miss one of the cleverest fastening components in the LOXX® system, purpose-built for strength in places...
Not every fastening need involves flat surfaces or fabric. Pipes, tubes, and hoses demand a different kind of solution, one that wraps, grips, and holds with purpose. That’s where the LOXX® pipeclamp earns its keep.Clean, clever, and built to last, it offers a whole new...
Fasteners often look the same at a glance, but under the surface, the differences can be profound. Especially when you're working with precision-driven projects or unique material requirements, choosing the right type of screw isn't optional; it’s essential. The LOXX® metric screw isn’t just a variant....
Sometimes it’s not about holding tighter, it’s about letting go, easily. In hard-to-reach corners, under tension, or where visibility is poor, fastening systems often fail at their most basic job: being usable. That’s where the LOXX® smooth cap and loop upper part proves its quiet...
When you’re selecting upper parts, the surface finish is not just about looks. It’s about where the part will be used, how long it needs to last, and what kind of stress it will face. The right choice can save you from costly replacements, while...
An oval plate is more than a piece of metal with two holes. It’s a connector, a stabilizer, sometimes even the backbone of a larger structure. But not every oval plate is created equal. Thickness plays a major role in how well the plate performs....
Round stainless steel plates may look simple, but mounting them securely is an art. Their shape brings balance and symmetry, yet that same smooth surface demands precision when fastening. The wrong method can leave the plate loose or uneven, while the right one gives you...
When it comes to fastening materials, the humble self-tapping screw often becomes the unsung hero. You don’t need pre-drilled threads. You don’t need specialized inserts. The screw itself does the cutting as it goes in, locking materials together with efficiency that feels almost effortless. But...
